Hi, I got a report that I broke partition magic compatibility when
introducing extra checks for norton disk doctor compatibility at
1st of May. The fix seems to be trivial, maybe you want to test it.
I am waiting for a reply from the original bug reporter - he had
another suggested fix, so I would like to wait for his comments on
my suggested fix.

(confmt_jump has the effect of a "pass-through" for the affected function,
and the bug was that functions in 0-0x50 range which were not explicitly
handled by LBAcache were blocked. The proper behaviour is to block only a
few explicitly enumerated functions in 0-0xff range and panic for all unknown
functions in 0x50-0xff range...)
